Film Production and Distribution

As the Sloan Film Program has matured, it is increasingly focusing on developing and producing films for theatrical release, partnering with organizations such as Film Independent which is geared toward getting films budgeted, financed and produced.

The Foundation's partnership with Coolidge Corner Theater’s Science on Screen program provides an opportunity for both those Sloan-winning films that reach completion and those that have won Sloan Prizes at festivals to be shown at nonprofit cinemas nationwide.
